After this years Roo I was about 90% sure that I wanted to go again next year. Then I watched 'Taking Woodstock' last night, which made me reminisce about Bonnaroo's awesomeness... and I think my mind is pretty much made up. I wanted to wait and see the line-up first, but after going over the history of Roo line-ups, I've realized there's not one that I wouldn't have gone to. And looking over the projected/rumored/made up line-ups in the Troo music lounge, just about all of them sound fantastic. I think superfly would have to royally Eff up at this point to make a Bonnaroo that I wouldn't attend. So this year I'm thinking about getting pre-sale tickets. Don't they offer a really good deal? Like $150 for $200? How much are they, and when do they usually go onsale? And, while we're at it, when do they normally announce the line-up, and how much are the first tier tickets normally?
Early birds are usually around Christmas if they offer them and they have been as low as $125. Line-up comes the first week of February. First tier are around 215 to 225 (other people may know) and are difficult to snag.

I thought they didn't have early bird tickets for '09. (By early bird I mean pre-sale in Decemeber before the line-up is out) I always go early bird but bought tix in 1st tier this year when they went on sale in Feb.
Am I wrong or am I just getting old and forgetful or did I miss them?
Edit: I just found my 2009 Roo receipt and I did get the Early Bird. I must have just been thinking that the discount was not much this year or thinking of Roo '08 which had no Early Bird.
Man I am getting old.

So wait, how much are pre-sales? And do they usually sellout very quickly? Me and my girlfriend finally realized there's no point in waiting till line-up comes out because we'll be there no matter what, might as well save some money.

I will definitely be getting a pre sale ticket this year. And this year I made sure i started saving way earlier so I can pay it all at once and not do the payment plan.

Haven't been that cheap since '07. I think in '08 they were just under $200 fer the first tier tickets, but over that with added fees. And this past 'Roo I think the cheapest was around $210. Am I wrong?
They were $209.50 in '09 plus fees. Shipping was the same no matter how many you bought so they were just over $240 ea (if you bought 2) and $245-$250 for one.
